Projects

The support project ACTRIS IMP was funded by UEFISCDI under the “Supporting Participation in Horizon 2020” call (PN‑III‑CEI‑SUPORT‑PO‑2020), and was launched to follow up an earlier Horizon 2020 infrastructure grant (ACTRIS PPP). Its main goal was to help transition ACTRIS from a project-based network to a centralized pan‑European research infrastructure, in full alignment with the European ACTRIS RI […]

SVANTE was an ESA-funded project that aimed to conduct a series of atmospheric measurement campaigns on behalf of the European Space Agency to support and validate data from the Sentinel-5P satellite. The work was intended to include both ongoing field activities and specialized campaigns. A key planned activity was an airborne campaign using ‘transect flights’

PN-III-P2-2.1-PED-2019-1816 Implementation period: 02/11/2020-01/11/2022 Objective: To develop a methodology which quantifies the relationship between the biomass burning typology and the smoke measurements acquired by lidar in remote locations. Biomass burning typology (or smoke typology) will refer to the vegetation type (land cover). The smoke measurements by lidar (observations) are quantified in terms of IOPs. The analysis will

Scopul proiectului de cercetare TEMPEST (Studiul furtunilor convective și pericolelor asociate acestora în climatul actual și viitor) a fost acela de a îmbunatați cunoștințele actuale despre furtunile convective severe din Europa luând în considerare riscul, impactul și predictibilitatea acestora. Proiectul a fost împărțit în trei etape. În continuare pentru fiecare dintre aceste etape de lucru sunt prezentate

PN-III-P1-1.1-TE-2019-0340, ctr. TE 71/2020 Implementation period: September 2020-August 2022 Objective: To assess the aerosols properties and to quantify their possible sources using a combination of remote sensing and in-situ measurements The project aims to identify the sources of aerosols in Romania and to characterize them from chemical and optical point of view. This assessment will improve the

The overall project objective was the development and implementation of an alert system for precision agriculture and environmental management related to the identification of air pollution and extreme weather events. The project aimed to deliver a near real-time alerting system for precision agriculture through a comprehensive integrated online platform, where near real-time satellite-based products and

2020 was the International Year of Sound, an area of high importance for science and technologies for all in modern society. Our team’s goal was to join the European Researchers’ Night event in Romania with this initiative, in order to emphasize both research activities and technological development mixed with sounds and music: DoReMi-RO. The intention

HELENA – HERA LIDAR ENGINEERING MODEL ALTIMETER aimed to develop a lidar engineering model (EM) altimeter for current and future ESA AIM missions. The project was primarily focused on the development of an altimeter for the HERA mission. The HELENA design was based on a Laser Landing Altimeter Engineering Model developed by EFACEC, Portugal, within

The PROBE Cost Action’s goal was to bridge the observational gap in observing the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL), the layer of atmosphere closest to the Earth’s surface where we all live. The first step to achieving such a goal was defined as providing ABL profile observations of temperature, humidity, wind, aerosol, and clouds from various
